Have Ice Cream Any Time With Insanely Easy Hack

Here at Delish, we've gotten pretty good at making ice cream without an ice cream machine. We've made no-churn in about every flavor imaginable. We've made the creamiest chocolate sorbet ever with just a handy hand-held mixer. And now, we've found a way that's even easier! Introducing: mason jar ice cream! Yep, it's as easy as it sounds.

Simply fill a mason jar (make sure you have a tight fitting lid) about halfway with heavy cream. Add a little sugar and vanilla and you're ready to shake! Not only is this the easiest recipe ever but you get a workout making it so … technically it's guilt free right? The cream thickens pretty quickly so after about three minutes take a peek inside and see if the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. If not, just seal it back up and keep shaking! It's like the cheapest shake weight ever. When it's thick enough, throw it into the freezer for a few hours.

We chose vanilla but you can go crazy with the flavors! Any chopped fruit would go well, or crush your favorite cookie or candy and throw that into the mix! The opportunities are endless — you could duplicate your favorite Ben & Jerry's fav. (Cherries + chocolate chips + fudge sauce = major Cherry Garcia hack.)
